The Key to Atlantis

[Guest Warrioe-Sage]

The Key to Atlantis: The Magic Mushroom

There seems, in my mind at least, an undeniable link between the magic mushroom and the story of Atlantis. In fact they might be one and the same thing!

I came to this conclusion while pondering the differences and similarities between the works of two people I respect very highly. That is the alternative ancient histories of Terence McKenna and Michael Tsarion. Both agree that there is a hidden history that is unknown to the masses but differ greatly on what the "key" to that history is. Michael believes strongly in the physical existence of Atlantis (the Garden of Eden) while McKenna denied the need for a truly ancient technologically advanced culture and concentrated on magic mushrooms.

In both world views there is a need for “something” that drastically changed the course of human evolution in our distant past. McKenna say in his “Tree of Life” lecture “that the mind doubled in size in 200 000 years” and quotes Langston as saying “The most spectacular transformation of a major organ of a higher animal in the entire fossil record”. He goes on to note that “Notice, it is the organ that created the theory of evolution itself”. People like Michael Tsarion however, taking their information from the ancient stories of many civilizations sacred texts and the occult knowledge of secret societies, come up with the drastic change of humanity in the Garden of Eden (note that even McKenna’s lecture makes reference to the Garden in its title “Tree of Life”) being due to genetic manipulation by the Atlantean aliens.

I believe these two stories are referring to the same event.

The psychic trauma of the genetic manipulation and cataclysmic destruction of Mu and Atlantis is the same story as McKenna’s speculations about the traumatic loss experienced by our forefathers as they were separated from there mutual symbiotic relationship between them and entheogenic plants. The Garden of Eden and the fall of man from Gods grace… McKenna ascribes the loss of the mushroom due to environmetal canges.

To illustrate lets look at a few other similarities that come to mind today, without having the time to really explore this in the depth it deserves right now, as I am eager to get this speculation out

Maybe a more detailed explanation will follow if the need arises.

The caduceus which is analogous the tree in the Garden of Eden with its coiled serpent is also at the same time a symbol of medicine and as Jan Irvin and Andrew Rutajit have undeniably shown in “The Pharmacratic Inquisition” video lecture it is also the magic mushroom, especially the Aminita Muscaria. The caduceus (the tree) is also the DNA coil or double helix. The caduceus as DNA symbol and tree seems to fit perfectly with the Atlantis story but how does it fit with entheogenic (or god manifesting) plants? We need to look no further than anthropologist Jeremy Narby’s great book “The Cosmic Serpent” for our answer.

In it we find out that Shamans have always connected their sacred plants like the magic mushroom or the partly coiled vine plant (more coils, spirals)derivative Ayahuasca to snakes. They say that the snakes (sometimes depicted as gods or beings from the stars) are the real teachers that they learn mystical knowledge from when partaking in the ritualistic use of psychedelic plants. Narby goes on to speculate very convincingly that these snakes are the DNA helix. This fits very nicely with Timothy Leary’s eight circuit model of human consciousness where one of the highest circuits that can be developed and turned on by the use of psychedelics is the Neoro-genetic circuit. The circuit that allows one to access the entire history of the organism through conscious communion with the genetic memory inside the DNA! Think also about David Icke and his theories on the junk DNA as transmitters of information between organisms “The one hundred monkeys syndrome” or Rupert Sheldrake’s Morphogenetic Field.

Now we can see the connection between Atlantis and the magic mushroom more clearly with the snake experience of Shamanism and the snake in the Garden of Eden or the Lemurians as Michael Tsarion interprets it. Snake gods as positive elements in both alternate history views.

But we also have the angels or winged elements in both, as the Nephilim of Atlantis and the wings of the Amanita Muscaria’s mushroom cap. Both represented again by the caduceus.

The word Atlantis is quite possibly derived from Atlas. There were sacred pillar(s) in Atlantis just as the human pillar (the spinal column) has the Atlas at its apex. Holding the head up like Atlas holds up the world. Again both can be symbolized by the caduceus.

Could the Masonic pillar with its stem and bulbous globe be another hidden mushroom?

We also have the strong element of UFO’s in both stories. The Mushroom experience is often connected with the abduction, visitation or contact scenario. In Michael's Atlantis the UFO’s and aliens are the Atlanteans themselves and we can also see how the mushroom looks like the saucer shaped UFO.

(A little drawing I made.)

Another thing which came through me today might seem like a stretch to some and profound to others is the fact that Tiamat (the second sun) is somewhat similar to the word Amanita. Amanitas are also referred to in the “Pharmacratic Inquisition” as god’s sun on Earth. A second representation of the sun on Earth as the bright red Amanita mushroom can resemble the sun.

On this Time Magazine cover of Carl Jung no less, (isn’t life perfect?) we can see the whole story I am speaking of alluded to synchronisticly through occult symbols.

See the Lapis or philosophers stone tied to a string which goes up through the coiled serpents into their mouths? The lapis on page 308-309 of Manly P. Hall’s “Secret Teachings” is said to be the stone from which the holy grail was carved. Jesus, who it has been shown convincingly, is the magic mushroom as well drank from this same holy grail. Is the Masonic Lapis the magic mushroom? The Amanita also has a stage in its growth where it resembles the holy grail and you can literally pick it and drink from it, it’s magick liquid.

In the introduction to “Sex and Rockets: The Occult World of Jack Parsons” by John Carter we find more clues. Robert Anton Wilson writes that he believes the “narcotic” referred to by authors Knight and Lomas in their Books “The Hiram Key" and “The Second Messiah” used by Pharaohs of ancient Egypt to experience divine illumination is again our Amanita muscaria or psilocybin magic mushrooms! The Hiram Key here is said to derive from actual events that took place in ancient Egypt where the last Pharaoh of the native dynasty refused to reveal the secrets of this ritual (its ingredient) and was killed by the Hyskos dynasty in the manner of the widows son. The lost word or Hiram Key being then our magic mushroom.

If the philosophers stone, lapis, Hiram Key, Tree of Life, Hermes’ Staff (Caduceus), UFO’s, Holy Grail, snakes,globe with pillar, DNA, Jesus and Atlantis can all be convincingly shown to be intimately connected to the magic mushroom then don’t we have a clear picture here?!

Image taken from Manly P. Hall's "Secret Teachings". The whole story again in one picture. Jesus and the lapis and the idea of a vegetable (plant), the mushroom?

Think about the suppression of drugs in our culture through the fraternally controlled governments. Think also about how they threw Timothy Leary in jail for daring to give the masses their holy grail!

Would it be rash to speculate with this knowledge that in the really high ranks of O.T.O, Freemasons, Rosicrutians and Illuminati they partake in the ritual use of their philosophers stone while withholding its secrets from us at the bottom of the pyramid? Is it possible that there is more than just the finest wines in the world coursing through the veins and pineal glands of the elite at Bohemian Grove? I wonder…

The Phrygian Liberty Cap and the Magic Mushroom

The most famous iconic image of the French revolution has to be the painting by Eugene Delacroix "Liberty Leading the People".

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberty_Leading_the_People

I was paging through an art book recently with a friend and was immediately able to point out a few things about this painting because of having been reading "Talisman" by Graham Hancock and Robert Bauval. In this great book (about, as the full title suggests Sacred Cities and Secret Faith) we read on pages 6-7 under the Chapter Heading The Tricolour Goddess with the Phrygian Cap that during the French revolution the 'goddess reason' was frequently personified by an actresses wearing the tricolored veil and the Phrygian Liberty cap.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phrygian_cap

We also learn that the Phrygian liberty cap, which was a popular head piece amongst the public and the most zealous factions of the French Revolution, is originally associated with two pagan deities Mithra and Cybele.

Mithra with Liberty cap

Further in this wonderful passage we find that Cybele is associated with Isis and on page 4 of the same book we are told that when the Bastille fell a statue was erected in its place of a bare breasted goddess, again Isis.

Now if we look at the painting above we can see this image in a new light. 'Liberty' is a composite Goddess confirmed by the Phrygian Liberty cap (Cybele) and the bare breasts (Isis) who are in the end one and the same as well as 'the goddess reason'. We even have the tricolored veil represented by the French flag said to be worn buy actresses playing the ritualistic role of 'the goddess reason' during the revolution.

The point of all this is to show how a specific pagan ideology was at least in part at work during the French revolution. The obvious group we think of in this context is the Freemasons. We have their calling cards when considering the Isis goddess symbols and even the tricolor flag. Further we know that 'The statue of Liberty' was given to the United States by the French and was designed by a Mason. If we, with this in mind, look again at "Liberty Leading the People" our eyes are opened to the fact that this is also the classic stance of America's 'lady liberty' and confirms as well what we should already know. That when we look at the Statue of Liberty we are in fact looking at the Masonic goddess!

Some of this is confirmed in the Wikipedia article about the painting (URL above).

The posture (though not the attire) of the figure in the painting suggests that of the Statue of Liberty, designed by French sculptor Frederic Bartholdi in the 1880s.

Another "Liberty Cap" is a famous psychedelic magic mushroom by the same name, so called because of its unmistakable resemblance to the Phrygian cap. Or, as we shall see vice versa...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberty_cap_(mushroom)

It seems quite possible taking this into account that the Liberty cap worn by Mithra and Cybele is a symbol for the magic mushroom. This isn't a stretch when we remember that many other deities specifically the crucified saviors like Jesus and Krishna (and Hermes' staff the Caduceus) have been shown by researchers Andrew Rutajit and Jan Irvin to be interchangeable with the red amanita muscaria magic mushroom. Indeed Mithra himself is a crucified savior and quite possibly a prototypical Jesus figure.

In popular culture we see the Smurfs wearing Liberty caps and even living inside of amanita muscaria mushrooms.

Following the theme of this blog I would like to suggest a tentative possible connection between Atlantis and the Phrygian Liberty cap, which I hope at least has been well established as directly connected to the magic mushroom.

Freemasons including Benjamin Franklin, which documentaries like "Secret Mysteries of Americas Beginnings" convincingly show were influenced by Rosicrutian leader Francis Bacon's "The New Atlantis", tells us that these people had Atlantis on there minds when adding fuel to these revolutions.

http://video.google.ca/videoplay?docid=721...cret+beginnings

Interesting to speculate now that the Freemasonic mushroom inspired Liberty cap was worn by there gods and goddesses and then by revolutionaries while preparing the ground work for the control of the new world or their "New Atlantis".

Plato's three colors for Atlantis

The stone which was used in the work they quarried from underneath the centre island, and from underneath the zones, on the outer as well as the inner side. One kind was white, another black, and a third red, and as they quarried, they at the same time hollowed out double docks, having roofs formed out of the native rock.

White, red and black the colors named by Plato as the colors of Atlantis!

Destruction of Atlantis and Mu as symbol for loss of magic mushroom

Instead of a physical and cataclysmic destruction of an advanced Atlantean/Lemurian civilization I propose rather a psychospiritual loss of cosmic consciousness of ancient man (maybe even a synthesis of both!). This traumatic loss resulting in the neurosis we jokingly call "modern mans advanced technological history" and the materialist/rationalistic consensus trance. The psychosis referred to here brought on by the loss of the symbiotic relationship between early man and entheogenic (god manifesting) plants that started our rapid evolutionary change (+- 30 000 years ago).

Just like the pre-human creatures in Kubricks "2001: A Space Odyssey" being influenced by the alien monolith to develop tool use and technology we could speculate the relationship between man and mushroom stimulated rapid evolutionary advances like language itself (think Terence McKenna). We should note here that McKenna speculated that the psilocybin mushroom itself could be from outer space.

Also the emphasis again here on ancient monoliths, square stones from space (lapis), pillars and columns seem very likely candidates for symbols of magic mushrooms.

The magic mushroom often relate to the contact, visitation, abduction and UFO scenarios.

-Could the ever increasing attention of alternative ancient history theories in our zeitgeist like the wonderful one's of Michael Tsarion and Zecharia Sitchin involving alien races be because of our re-awakening into cosmic consciousness and potential reconnection with the cosmic community of super intelligences?

-Is Atlantis and Lemuria part of a "garden of Eden" genetic memory now resurfacing because of our ever increasing awareness of our interconnectedness made evident by acceleration of technology related to the singularity, eschaton and 2012 ideas? Is the current instability in the human political, social and religious spheres related to the birth pains of this growing sense of awareness?

-Have the secret society's and fraternally controlled government and media moguls conspired to keep this ancient knowledge to themselves to cement their position as our overlords possibly in cahoots with forces as yet beyond our conception hinted at by their constant referral to a "Great White Brotherhood"? While at the same time enjoying the secret of the philosophers stone and holy grail (magic mushroom) and denying us the serpent (DNA) knowledge this provides them?

-Have hidden occult symbols like this new NASA mission patch been hinting at these strange revelations?

The red swish originating from behind the three big stars and continues to coil around the planetoid forming the nr 6 and Saturn. The red swish also being possibly the red royal serpent bloodlines from Egypt's cult of Aten (maybe even back into Atlantis) possibly from the star systems Draco or Sirius. The red bloodline from Sirius (always in rough alignment with Orion's belt I believe?) coming down from the stars coiling around the planet like the snake? In context of my new developing theory about Atlantis being synonymous with magic mushrooms the red royal serpent bloodlines (they who walk on the red carpet) could be the families who keep the secret of the Amanita muscaria (the red magic mushroom) and the knowledge of the coiled snakes (DNA helix).

I would like to make it clear that I am not trying to suggest one view (either magic mushroom or Atlantis) as superior and more valid than the other, just yet. Rather I suggest that there is too much evidence that both are possibly valid and that they need to be integrated into a new theory of ancient alternative history including elements of both world views.

Atlantis: The name and the pillar

In Manly P. Hall's "Secret Teachings" we learn (page 80) that Plato wrote in his "Critias" that Poseidon, the God who was given rule over Atlantis and the sea, named Atlantis and the surrounding oceans (Atlantic) after his son Atlas. Further Atlantis is said to be located west of the Pillars of Hercules or the Straight of Gibraltar submerged under the sea (page 79).

The legend of Atlantis includes many references to pillar(s) in which the knowledge of Atlantis was inscribed.

http://www.lost-civilizations.net/atlantis...g-evidence.html

I believe that these pillars could quite possibly be symbolic of the magic mushroom and the bright red Amanita muscaria in particular. Freemasons and Rosicrucians have also many pillars in there ancient stories and sacred texts like Jachin and Boaz of Solomon's temple, quite possibly derived from the ancient accounts of the pillars of Atlantis. The pillars of masonry are also then good candidates for magic mushroom.

Atlas famously holds the world on his shoulders. This seems to be symbolically shown in the Masonic pillar with the Earth sphere on its top. The Rosicrucian manual of the AMORC on page 101 states that the spinal column has 33 (a number of amazing importance to secret societies) sections when you take the Atlas as the first section. The Atlas then holds up the head just like the mythical Atlas holds up the world as shown figuratively by the Masonic pillar with globe. Thus we can deduce that the Masonic pillar or column could also be a representation of the human spinal column (with its 33 sections).

Another symbol for the spinal column often found in fraternal contexts is the caduceus or staff of Hermes. Hermes is also said to have inscribed a pillar in Atlantis with all their sacred knowledge to preserve this information from the destruction in the coming deluge. The caduceus with its rod and disc also reminds us of the Masonic pillar and has been convincingly shown to also be a representation of the magic mushroom by Jan Irvin and Andrew Rutajit in there "Pharmacratic Inquisition" video lecture.

Now we have the name of Atlantis and its pillars or columns strongly connected to the magic mushroom.

Examining Mushroom Synchronicities using Shamanism and Astrotheology

Now I would like to investigate the connections between rabbits and the psychedelic mushroom (especially the Amanita Muscaria) and other related subjects. To do this I will highlight some of the issues raised by the study of Shamanism and its use of entheogenic (god manifesting) plants and also astrotheology.

Astrotheology is the study of theology founded on observation or knowledge of the celestial bodies. Some proponents of astrotheology are Acharya S, author of "The Christ Conspiracy: The Greatest Story Ever Sold", Jordan Maxwell, Jan Irvin and Andrew Rutajit, co-authors of "Astrotheology and Shamanism". Irvin and Rutajit also put out a 3 and a half hour video lecture available for free download online called, "The Pharmacratic Inquisition".

http://www.gnosticmedia.com/DL.html

Astrotheology claims that many (if not most) religions including Christianity, Judaism and Hinduism have the worship of the stars, moon and the sun as their foundation. For the purposes of this entry, the relevance is to show some of the supporting evidence for primarily one facet of this theory, that of Jesus Christ being the anthropomorphized sun.

It certainly isn't my objective to try and prove or disprove astrotheology as a whole. I find it a very useful paradigm; it seems to fit the facts better than a straight interpretation of the Bible.

Major points tying Jesus and the sun together:

-Jesus has 12 disciples just as the year has 12 months. The earth revolves around the sun once a year. This year is divided into 12 months related to the cycles of the moon. These twelve periods also have been divided into 12 signs of the zodiac.

-Jesus is said to be resurrected after 3 days in the cave. We celebrate Jesus' birthday on December 25, three days after the Winter Solstice of December 22. On December 25th the sun starts moving back towards its apex in the northern hemisphere sky after 3 days of idling.

-Jesus is constantly referred to as "the light" in the Bible.

-Many correlations between the zodiac and the Bible-myth can be posited (eg. Adam and Eve, the Twins or Gemini; Jesus, the Fish or Pisces; The Lamb of God, Aries; John the Baptist as Aquarius etc.)

If we say for arguments sake that it is true that Jesus is the sun, it would also be easy to explain Easter as a natural result of sun and moon worship. The Christian celebration of Easter happens around the same date as the vernal equinox (spring) each year. This is the same time of year when the sun becomes hotter and the days are longer. It isn't hard to imagine ancient cultures having a particular interest in the sun and its cycles, for survival was far more dependent on the fecundity of the environment. It is also obvious that the important stages of the cycles of planetary bodies would be marked by celebration and worship. Seemingly "modern" humans have the map confused for the territory yet again (Namaste, Alan Watts). The anthropomorphisms of celestial bodies (like Jesus) have become the focus of our veneration instead of the natural phenomena which they represent, much in the same way we now attach value to money instead of the real wealth.

The most obvious characteristic of the rabbit would be fertility. Bunnies and their propensity for mating and having offspring are legend. Isn't this the reason Playboy uses a giant white bunny as mascot. "Fuck like a Bunny" is a common saying in modern speech. The connection between rabbits and sex is well established in western culture. The link between bunnies, rabbits and Easter eggs quickly becomes clear. They are symbols of fruitful, vital and successful fertility, circumstances hoped for at the onset of spring and the coming summer months. Reflect further for a moment on the Rabbit In the Moon motif and also how the moon is traditionally associated with fertility and menstruation.

There seems to be livid debate about the true etymology of Easter. Some connect it to a pagan Goddess of fertility while others to a compression of the words eastern and star. In either case the etymology would seem to suggest more support for the Jesus-myth idea than the traditional "real dude who died on a cross to be born again" model.

What about the connection between rabbits and mushrooms? To answer that I have to first explain a bit about Shamanism and entheogenic plants. John Marco Allegro (a once respected Dead Sea Scroll scholar) says in his book, "The Sacred Mushroom and the Cross," that Jesus and the gospels are derived from the ancient Shamanic practice of the ritualistic ingestion of hallucinogenic mushrooms, the red and white spotted Amanita Muscaria to be particular but not exclusively. Jan Irvin and Andrew Rutajit in their book and lecture also further this hypothesis and mix it together with astrotheology.

The basic gist of the theory is thus:

-Ancient cultures all over the world used entheogenic plants to experience communion with the divine. They did this on days that have celestial significance such as the vernal equinox or Easter (heralding spring time) and winter solstice (Christmas) or the rebirth of the sun as it rises back up in the sky. It's interesting to note that on Christmas day the belt of Orion (three kings?) lines up with Sirius and points directly towards the position where the sun will rise on that morning.

-The Amanita Muscaria mushroom is traditionally used in images on Christmas and New Years cards, as well as Christmas ornaments.

-The Siberian Shamans, who were reindeer herders, would pick the mushrooms that grew underneath the pine tree, dry them in its branches and deliver them to their people. Often these Shamans would enter the homes through the chimney of the traditional Siberian home or Yurt. The chimney became the entrance of choice in these structures during snowed in winter months.

-The colorful mushrooms grow, pushing themselves up through the pine needles, and at a certain stage of development look a lot like eggs in a nest. Once harvested, the remaining hole resembles a rabbit hole. Many Christmas and New Years cards have images of rabbits and mushrooms. Could it be that the holidays of Easter (equinox) and Christmas (solstice) have, over the years, become integrated with reflective symbolism?

-The image of the deity Jesus is said in this theory to be the anthropomorphized mushroom. The image of Jesus on the cross resembles the mushroom with its single leg stance, thorny crown, and sash around the waist.

[Guest Warrioe-Sage]

Popular culture references to Amanitas and Rabbits abound:

-Alice follows the white rabbit into Wonderland where she finds the hookah-smoking caterpillar sitting on a mushroom, which makes her shrink and grow.

-The little blue gnomes, or Smurfs, live in Amanitas. A little coincidence on the side for your enjoyment: I learned just yesterday that the Smurfs wear Phrygian Liberty Caps. Caps that were worn by American and French revolutionaries (which ads a possible freemasonic "coincidence" to the Smurfs) during their respective struggles.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phrygian_cap#Revolutionary_Icon

-In Fantasia there are dancing animated Amanitas.

- Indigo children watch rabbits on TV ( the Matrix)

This cartoon and more like it from http://diannepiepan.blogspot.com/

Now that we have the rabbit and the mushroom comfortably connected, it's possible to examine the rabbit, UFO and mushroom synchronicities as a whole. Terrence McKenna's frequent mushroom and alien discourse becomes pertinent and the Sirius mystery (snakes, amphibians, DNA, caduceus, Starseed) rears its head in the affair. Robert Anton Wilson's observation of UFO's as sexual fertility symbols in the case of the classic phallic/cigar-shaped and modern breast-saucer shaped UFO's will also be addressed (mentioned in "The Book of the Breast", I believe?). I if this resonates with your particular belief system check in for more on the matter in the near future.

The Christmas/Amanita connection is also mentioned in the excellent, "Braking Open the Head" by Daniel Pinchbeck.

Shout out to these sights for help with the above.

Try to seperate the biblical stuff from the other stuff.

The biblical stuff is grim but true.

You are a very intellgent and able to evaluate information.

Obviously a University student so try to relax.

I know someone that simply went fishing in oregon for ten years and never got a fish.

So illusions are projected.

As a example Having a pen beam dissolve ones brain with added affects of feeling so as a feel, so nasty stuff going the nasal passages into the throat swallowing and the problem/threat that if one moved a brian surgery accident would occur.

So try to be patient on illusions.

In some situations its like being on a pot all the time,

The Magic Mushroom and the Stargate

“I am the Snake that giveth Knowledge & Delight and bright glory, and stir the hearts of men with drunkenness. To worship me take wine and strange drugs whereof I will tell my prophet, & be drunk thereof!” Aleister Crowley-The Book of the Law

The Atlantis bull's eye and canal possible popular origin of the red Atlantis C symbol (I will try and connect this image with the magic mushroom)

Plato's account of the layout of Atlantis claims it was constructed by Poseidon in concentric circles of water and land with a large canal extending from the central land element through the circular zones. This “bull's eye” design, which is sometimes identified with a C (because of the canal cutting the circle), can be seen as a symbol for Atlantis. This article by William Henry refers to the Atlantis seal or bull's eye and shows how even the 2004 GOP convention in NewYork possibly contained a veiled reference to the Atlantian C. http://site.williamhenry.net/index.php?opt...1&Itemid=41

Since looking at Isis (Sirius) rituals of 9/11 and finding stargates and wormholes in NASA mission patches, I have been trying to create a comfortable fit for these ideas with my personal views of Atlantis and magic mushrooms. My personal view of Atlantis is that it represents a past age where man and mushroom lived in a sacred union or symbiosis with each other. The destruction of Atlantis represents the separation of this bond and/or the suppression of its knowledge. Rather than a merely technologically impressive age I see a psycho-spiritually advanced human culture traumatized by the loss of its connection to the divine, facilitated in large part by the sacrament of the magic mushroom. Perhaps the impressive ancient structures, such as the ever increasing amount of underwater buildings found around the globe and the mother of all mysteries, the Pyramids of Giza, denote not merely technical wizardry but also magickal proficiency.

Some of these ideas I am happy to discover are not unique but are apparently shared by Graham Hancock in his new book, “Supernatural”. Download an interview including discussion about ancient civilizations and the use of sacred plants with Graham Hancock here http://www.radiorbit.com/archives.htm.

Of importance before we continue with the comparison of Atlantean symbolism with magic mushroom use, we may note that as well as the fall of man into the “nightmare of history,” (as Terence McKenna would say), the mushroom provides the possible connection between primitive man (or even primordial?) and modern semantic symbol-manipulating man. McKenna frequently commentated about the possibility that the missing link in the evolution of man into what we are today could be attributed to the introduction of entheogenic (god manifesting) plants and the diet of pre-man. I like to think of the image of the humanoid monkey creatures from "2001: A Space Odyssey" coming into contact with the black monolith (the mushroom) and being influenced to use tools.

William Henry says in his lectures, which you can view online at Google Video, that the bull's eye symbol is the two dimensional representation of the three dimensional phenomena of the wormhole or stargate.

http://video.google.ca/videoplay?docid=917...q=william+henry

The bull's eye symbol is found in many ancient cultures and he believes these are symbols of the stargate and are interchangeable with the concept of the Holy Grail and the Ark. The key to the stargate he says is the Blue Apples, represented by the occult grapes, the hermetic caduceus and Egyptian crux ansata.

Poussins "Autumn, or the Grapes of the Promised Land". Note the ladder (DNA) comming out of the grapes (blue apples or magic mushrooms) and up into the world tree and the heavens (blue sky with clouds).

I think it’s plausible it is the key

The blue connection is provided by knowing that psilocybin-type mushrooms are particularly identified by their tendency to bruise blue.

All of the psilocybin species described herein may be most conclusively identified by an enzyme that occurs with the psilocybin. This enzyme turns blue through an oxidation process after the flesh of the mushroom is damaged. Crack the stem to check for the reaction, which takes from 20 to 120 minutes to occur. The blue is similar to blue ink, unless the flesh of the mushroom is yellowish, in which case the color will appear blue-green. All psilocybin mushrooms (with the exception of one uncommon species that is not covered in this manual) turn blue in this manner.

http://www.erowid.org/plants/mushrooms/mus...ld_guide1.shtml

Jan Irvin and Andrew Rutajit in their video lecture, the Pharmacratic Inquisition, identify Jesus, Mithra, the Virgin Mary and the blue Hindu deity Krishna with aspects of the magic mushroom. William Henry in the Atlantis article linked above shows us a fascinating painting of Jesus standing in front of concentric circles (possible stargate) again as a blue deity.

Further in the Pharmacratic Inquisition we learn how the symbols attributed to these deities, like the cross, the caduceus and the dove are aspects of the magic mushroom.

http://www.pharmacratic-inquisition.com/

This account from Terence McKenna is pivitol to the argument. Here is McKenna’s retelling of his brother's encounter with a stargate!

Dennis’ story was the classic description of a shamanic night journey. He said that he had gone to the chorro and had meditated in the mission cemetery we had visited before. He had begun to return to the camp when he confronted a particularly large Inga tree near where the path skirted the edge of the mission. On impulse, he had climbed it, aware as he did that the ascent of the world tree is the central motif of the Siberian shamanic journey. As he climbed the tree, he felt the flickering polarities of many archetypes, and as he reached the highest point in his accent, something that he called “the vortex” opened ahead of him-a swirling, enormous doorway into time. He could see the Cyclopean megaliths of Stonehenge and beyond them, revolving at a different speed and at a higher plane, the outlines of the pyramids, gleaming and marble-faceted as they had not been since the days of pharaonic Egypt. And yet further into the turbulent maw of the vortex, he saw mysteries that were ancient long before the advent of man-titanic archetypal on worlds unimagined by us, the arcane machinery of sentient agencies that swept through this part of the galaxy when our planet was young and its surface barely cooled. This machinery, these gibbering abysses, touched with the cold of interstellar space and aeon-consuming time, rushed down upon him. He fainted, and time-who can say how much time-passed by him. - Terence McKenna-True Hallucinations

I wanted to quote that entire piece as it is a vivid example of how no technology-at least, the westernized concept of technology-was required to open a vortex or stargate. The human body and psychedelic plants, here primarily the magic mushroom, were enough. He had the key (the magic mushroom) the ladder (the chakra system fueled with prana/orgone by meditation) and the physical talisman endowed with spiritual significance (the tree). It is also a beautiful passage that ignites the imagination and I feel is the highlight of entire book.

William Henry recognizes the human body as a stargate tool, the completely activated chakra system being the fractally self-similar* pillar, ark and tablet he believes necessary to open the gate. I am perfectly happy to accept that scientific technologies can or have been developed to facilitate the opening of doors to other dimensions or space/time locations but think it’s important to note that the prepared shaman and his human body is enough. Quite possibly, in some extreme cases, the need for the “Blue Apples” or entheogenic plants is even unnecessary.

I like to think of this (Dennis' stargate ordeal) as an example of how we need not get too hung up on ancient Edenic, Atlantean, Egyption and crucifixion possible stargate events. These events can and quite possibly are happening right now as I believe some NASA mission patches and crop circles allude to.

[Guest Warrioe-Sage]

Note the white C shaped possible wormhole allusion in the bottom of the STS-115 patch and yellow C in the STS-107 patch. A little later we will see these, and other, shapes in new crop circles.

*Fractal self-similar themes are ideas like the human pillar or chakra system as analogous to the Atlantean, Masonic and Kabbalistic middle pillar. The pillar is also the fractal representation of the caduceus and in its turn the magic mushroom. In other words, the magic mushroom is interchangeable for all the pillars we find in this stargate or wormhole discussion, the same way DNA, hurricanes and galaxies are fractal representations of each other. The stargate itself can be seen as a fractal self-similar DNA double helix, hurricane and galaxy. This goes a long way to explain the snake, coil and spiral imagery present on all levels of this stargate idea. The gods (like the blue Jesus and Krishna), many with serpent, amphibian and fish connections seem probable fractals of the gate and the mushroom itself.

Gilgamesh in the waterdoor on an Akkadian seal.

The theme of water and its strong connection to the stargate and magic mushroom is supported by the idea that the gate or vortex itself looks mercurial or like quicksilver when opened. Jesus walks on the water and Dennis McKenna sees “a swirling, enormous doorway into time” and “the turbulent maw of the vortex”. The “Stargate” film and popular television show portrays the gate as a giant circular water door. Remember Neo in “The Matrix,” dipping his finger into the melting mirror before entering the real world, evoking Alice's journey through the looking glass? On the cover of Terence McKenna’s, “True Hallucinations,” we see the magic mushroom with a waterfall coming out of its cap.

Water is the sacramental fluid you drink from the magic mushroom during its Holy Grail stage and also the urine of the reindeer the Siberian Shaman would drink, its slight poison having been neutralized thus. In the Pharmacratic Inquisition, the urine-drinking ritual is speculated to be the true source of the sacramental wine (as the saviors’ blood) Christians drink during mass.

The shape of the red amanita muscaria magic mushroom during its many stages of growth is telling as synonymous with stargate themes and symbols. http://www.somashamans.com/aboutamanita.html

The egg stage is when the mushroom is round or oval, similar to the serpent egg (philosophers stone) or Vesica Pisces.

The egg, a step up the spiral fractal, in the sphere of the human body is the astral egg seen by mystics as surrounding the human body.

Notice how the astral egg's outline, in this particular image by Alex Grey, forms what looks like a set of wings. Could this be a reason why the wings are present around pictorial representations of the cosmic egg and the possible stargate (a fractal of the sun) in the Egyption and Sumerian solar orbs or winged discs?

Above we see the oval egg surrounded with serpent and spread wings on one of Crowley's Thoth tarot cards.

Jesus with halo inside the oval egg of the stargate (William Henry refers to this version as the "eye," another term for gate) shown as the Vesica Pisces (also the vagina down the fractal) found at Chartres Cathedral. Note how the halo causes the outline of the Vesica to look like archangel similar to the Alex Grey painting above.

The bulb state is when the cap resembles the sphere or sun and the circular vortex.

It is interesting to realize that Tiamat, the fabled second sun, is similar to the word Amanita.

Next the mushroom turns into what resembles an umbrella.

Here we see one possible connection to the the red Atlantian C symbol, the outline of the cap forming the arch (perhaps connected to the Royal Arch).

[Guest Warrioe-Sage]

A red amanita with the symbol of the mushroom inside the golden circle or gate?

The Triple Tau inside the vortex from the exterior of a Freemason temple.

The final stage is the Holy Grail phase during which the cap has upturned completely and formed the challis.

King Tutankhamun's Alabaster chalice looks like three magic mushrooms to me. Is this an early representation of the three crucifixion crosses?

The gods Anubis and Isis feeding their mortal counterparts the magic mushroom.

The mushroom cap breaks through the universal veil during the egg-shape stage and the veil ends up surrounding the stem or pillar. We can comfortably connect the veil with the idea of “Isis unveiled” and the sash around the single pillar of Jesus’ legs, as he is almost always portrayed on the cross. Headgear worn by divinties such as Jesus’ thorny crown, Cybele's (Isis) Phrygian Liberty cap, Lady Liberty's (Columbia) spiked halo, the pope's red Zucchetto and the blue Egyption Khepresh are all quite probably magic mushroom-related imagery.

Winged Columbia looking at herself on top of the Capital building wearing her mushroom or Liberty cap and C-shaped laurel wreath.

Columbia, like Isis, travelling through the stargate waters on her celestial mushroom boat. We will see this boat again in a minute.

C-shaped Atlantis hotel complex planned for completion end of 2008 in Dubai, including underwater hotels.

The Red C of Atlantis could very well be the red amanita muscaria in its Holy Grail stage and the source of the ark and arch connected to the stargate.

See the C-shaped arch element in this ancient cylinder seal depicting a speculated stargate event. The goddess Inanna with a snake eminating from her third eye in front of the pillar (magic mushroom).

Here she is again with wings like Columbia holding her C -shaped ring or magic mushroom.

Egyption divine boats used by their gods also have the distinctive C-shape of the magic mushroom and we have already seen how the mushroom can be connected to water.

[Guest Warrioe-Sage]

The Egyption divine boat which looks a lot like the Holy Grail-stage mushroom and King Tut's chalice. It looks like the water pillar is growing out of an egg.

http://www.gnosticmedia.com/communion/view...f941a56080ee66f

Above we see the boat lifted by a water pillar reminiscent of the Terence McKenna book cover, "True Hallucinations". See the ladder on the boat, the ladder to the stars?

A ladder to the holy light of the stargate and cosmic illumination on Time Magazine, you better believe it!

The C-shape or arch is seen again in modern acounts of wormholes.

Egyption stone carvings at Dendera show reliefs which some believe are proof of ancient Egyption mastery of electricity, as they have the appearence of strange light bulbs.

William Henry calls these serpent jars. They remind me of the jars seen in the hands of Mary Magdalene and other goddess figures like Inanna.

Mary Magdalene by Bernardino Luini, neo Sumerian goddess and a pre-Hispanic Peruvian Wari "Serpent Jar".

My third eye is saying these resonate with the pots of honey Terence McKenna used to talk about in his lectures, that the ancients used to preserve mushrooms in using honey as presrvative. Are these serpent jars the same honey mushroom pots?

Here's the scenario: you have this climax Edenic partnership society based on orgies and mushrooms and herding, and the drying continues. The mushroom becomes less plentiful. It becomes localized. It becomes seasonal. The mushroom festivals become further and further apart. Eventually this is recognized; there is an anxiety to preserve the mushroom. The obvious strategy then is to preserve it in honey. But honey itself has the capacity to turn into a psycho-active substance, mead, a crude alcohol. So what begins as a mushroom-cult, through a sincere effort to preserve the mushroom-cult, turns into a mead-cult a few thousand years later. The mushrooms are spread thinner and thinner, and the honey is more and more the focus. But look at the consequences of an alcohol-cult. Terence McKenna interview

http://gopher.well.sf.ca.us:70/0/Publicati...NDO/terence.txt

Does this change from entheogenic, sacred and divine plants to the drinking of alcohol go some way to explain the connection of Jesus with grapes and wine instead of mushrooms?

Could this honey mushroom connection explain in part the fascination and veneration of bees by the ancients, still found today in the beehive symbol of the Freemasons and the French Fleur-de-Lis?

Image from Manly P. Hall's "Secret Teachings"

A honeybee is also called Apis, the same name of the Egyption bull-diety.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apis

I see no difference between modern psychedelic encounters with gods and aliens induced by entheogenic plants and age-old classic contact events. The stargate events hinted at by the Eden story, the crucifixion, etc have no more import to me than the similar accounts given by modern stargate travellers. Terence Mckenna talked to the mushroom and was given the Time Wave Zero theory, indicating 2012 as the end date of history (without knowledge of the Mayan calender). Timothy Leary, Robert Anton Wilson and Philip K. Dick all give accounts of transmissions from Sirius. Aleister Crowley channelled Aiwass to write "The Book Of The Law". Contact is possible right here and now if we become open to receive it.

Now for some good old conspiracy. The Crest toothpaste company uses the red Atlantean C as their corporate logo.

Note the light from behind the E, just like the occult focus on the 5th letter of the alphabet seen in other logos like Dell's.

A waterdoor or stargate?

Red square and the C for compass, same as in the Freemasonic famous symbol. Maybe we can see the arch of a wormhole with a star in the middle in this "Compass Bank" logo.

More creepy corporate bull's eye logos

A memorial for the alleged Flight 93 crash (pictured above) was to be built, consisting of a huge Red Crescent of maple trees or a C directed towards Mecca (you couldn't make this **** up!). After some people started complaining about this preposed design (incorrectly labelling it as muslim), it has been changed to a giant red circle, somehow bisected with the trajectory of the Flight 93 plane. Sounds like they have changed the symbol from a C-shaped wormhole into an Atlantian bull's eye to me. Good job! The memorial is to be inducted on Sept 11, 2012.

Stargate and the NASA STS-115 patch

I have already indicated the stargate symbols on NASA mission patches in this post and discussed the matter as it relates to Isis (Sirius) rituals perpetrated by the fraternally-controlled government

Beautiful bull's eyes and wormholes

[Guest Warrioe-Sage]

The possiblity of wormhole, gateway and vortex crop circles synchromystically connected to these matters, another point to the debate.

last season had a weird crop circle that didn't look like much til after I viewed it with Sirius and stargates on the brain. Now it looks like a dog (Sirius is the dog star) entering a C-shaped wormhole.

Good to see u back sage. interesting theory.... does mary have some link with atlantis?

[Amulte]

The continent of Atlantis was an island

which lay before the great flood

in the area we now call the Atlantic Ocean.

So great an area of land, that from her western shores

those beautiful sailors journeyed

to the South and the North Americas with ease,

in their ships with painted sails.

To the East Africa was a neighbour, across a short strait of sea miles.

The great Egyptian age is but a remnant of The Atlantian culture.

The antediluvian kings colonised the world

All the Gods who play in the mythological dramas

In all legends from all lands were from fair Atlantis.

Knowing her fate, Atlantis sent out ships to all corners of the Earth.

On board were the Twelve:

The poet, the physician, the farmer, the scientist,

The magician and the other so-called Gods of our legends.

Though Gods they were -

And as the elders of our time choose to remain blind

Let us rejoice and let us sing and dance and ring in the new

Hail Atlantis!

had to put that in.

All psychedelics have their tie in the atlantian culture. anyone who is interested, google video has about 13 hours of doco on the atlantian culture. some events in the bible do line up to the atlantian events, both are in the antediluvian period.

humans came from pleiadees and lyra, lived on mars and malona, blew up the latter and moved to earth.

this image tells the story

WS--usually i can't find much in your posts to agree w/, but this post contains alot ov really good insights.

good to see you back in such fine form.

[Jesus On Peyote]

Had anyone seen\ heard about the underwater ruins off the coast of japan and india? Im willing to bet there are alot more off china ( and most of asia even) , and the americas, mainly the stresh between S america an africa. And iv also read from old books awhile back about pluto saying it was surrounded by a fair few volcanos, whoch could also lead to it being around the area of the Ring of Fire.

First and second pics are the tetonic plates and the last 2 are the volcanoes round the RoF.

thanks for the warm welcome and posts, its good to be back and in the company of cool and wise fellows.

yeah I managed to crawl out of the pits of oblivion and stand firmly upon the towers of the magi and once more look out upon the waters of infinity.

By the way I heard that a huge pyramid was found in Queensland (Gympie)

They say it was built by explorers from China

I have a video somewhere about the ring of fire, aboriginal prophecys about australia drying out on the coast, while the inner areas of australia becomes the only place that has water (under ground rivers )

also it talks of the rise of new lands east of australia called Mui after the ring of fire erupts. I think it has some thing to do with 2012 and earth changes.

yes outposts, they had them all around the world from the fleet in the 14th or 12th century?

read a historical book all about it and very little evidence is left cus the dynasty after the one that made all the fleets burnt all teh evidence and sunk the ships with only a few documents left

Atlantis = Santorini

right?

ancient maritime power

high civilisation

modern bathrooms etc

proximity to greece. lets not forget all ancient civs thought themselves the centre of the world

http://www.travel-to-santorini.com/page.php?page_id=372

but built on a volcanic island

boom...like krakatoa

this is whats left

http://www.santorini.net/

im sorry but without the genetic and epidemiologic evidence to back up ancient contact it just isnt feasible

when 2 human populations meet they always end up fucking each other, getting wasted and sharing stories/language/diseases

i can see plenty of evidence that this did not happen

lets take disease as an example

syphilis is a native american invention

influenza, malaria, typoid, cholera, smallpox - old world

the story of contact can be dated by the transmission of these and the resulting consequences

i think its far more interesting to look at the nature of reality and the possibility of distantly separated people , shamanic practitioners in particualr having shared experience

and these unifying themes being the basis of civilised art, architecture, religion, language and script

civilisations are similar cos they all come from shamanic roots

and shamanism is as close to universla as the human consiousness can be

King Tutankhamun's Alabaster chalice looks like three magic mushrooms to me. Is this an early representation of the three crucifixion crosses?

nope

those are without a doubt

waterlilly buds

they are burned in my retinas for all eternity. no doubt in my mind at all
